I thought I would write a quick post about a product that I think is fantastic for all toddlers. At the age of 2 ½ Joshua is walking and running about all the time, which is great when in a safe and secure environment. However when we are out and about we take Joshua’s day sack, a backpack for toddlers with strap for the parents to hold. This is a fantastic idea as it enables you as the parents to keep control of your toddler’s movements when out in busy places like towns. They are nice and small, toddler size back packs which can hold toys, nappies, wipes etc. An alternative to toddler straps.

When it comes to Joshua’s Nystagmus this offers other benefits, it has saved josh from falling head first and tripping over on many occasions.  It’s in new environments that Josh could potentially hurt himself and this is a great asset to help prevent such accidents.

Welcome to Nystagmusblog, created by Ashley and Jennifer Bacon.

Our 2 year old son Joshua has been diagnosed with Idiopathic Congenital Nystagmus (early onset Nystagmus). I want to create a place where as parents we can blog our experiences of Josh growing up. I hope this will be a useful source for other parents that have children and have been diagnosed or perhaps know someone with Nystagmus.

I thought of the idea of creating such a site after coming across the theshiftyeyesblog.com. If you have any suggestions, questions or areas that as parents we might be able to answer please comment or if you would prefer to remain private please contact us.
